The road ahead is getting more and more difficult, the road under your feet is getting more and more muddy, there is a layer of stagnant water on the swamp, the stagnant water is easy to reflect, it is difficult to see the situation under the stagnant water, if you have experience, you will find that the surface completely penetrated by the stagnant water, there will be pale green algae, and the ground is sunken, such a place is a quagmire trap, once you step into it, the swamp will slowly swallow into the human body, and finally the thin mud will pour into the body along the person's mouth and nose, and after a short time to sink to the bottom of the swamp, the whole person will slowly rot.

This kind of swamp requires very experienced people to discern the seepage on the surface, and it is absolutely impossible to go into the area where the water seepage is serious, in order to prevent the expedition from having an accident when passing through the swamp, the empress deliberately let people carry thorn metal.

The empress ordered someone to open the coffin, and the thorn metal was aggregated, and with the empress's control, it spread out in a row like lotus leaves, and the expedition team would naturally not fall into the swamp when it was on it.

After walking through this small piece of water, he suddenly saw two rows of zigzag footprints in front of him, and the ugly servant shouted: "The front should be the traces left by the entanglement of them, the empress, should we chase them?" ”

The empress looked at the footprints not far away and said, "They should have entered the Great Rift Land......

You Youle saw her hesitating, and said: "Empress, I think you should follow them, the person who is entwined with the dance is called Nie Xiaosheng, I have a holiday with him, he came from Shufang to find the tangling dance, so he is very familiar with the road to Shufang." ”

The empress is now quite a close confidant of Youyoule, and said, "Okay, let's follow them!" ”

The expedition team looked for shallow footprints left on the wetland, and sure enough, it didn't take long to come to the vicinity of the Great Riftland, the surface of the Great Rift was fragmented because there was a volcano nearby, the crater cracked a crack, and the magma formed a volcanic abyss along the crack, because of the dry river ice valley, the extreme uneven heat and cold caused the nearby dry crust to crack, these cracks spread from the abyssal lava valley to the surrounding cracks, the deepest is several thousand meters, and the rift valley connected to the abyssal lava valley will have lava flowing, There are also some that are individually cracked or the lava is solidified.

A long time ago, the Augustan Empire once built an iron bridge chain on top of a rift valley, from the iron bridge can be used to cross the Great Rift with the shortest distance, but now the iron bridge is destroyed, so it can only be crossed from under the Great Rift, the lava valley of the Great Rift is similar to the terrain of the Valley of the Season, but here is much more dangerous than the Valley of the Season, because once you go wrong, the magma flows over, and the way you go over is likely to be blocked, and some people are forced to have no choice but to risk death to go to the lava past, but people are not impregnable. It didn't take a few steps before he was scalded to death.

The expedition team followed the footprints left by Nie Xiaosheng and walked to the vicinity of the Great Riftland, and sure enough, there was a gentle slope leading straight to the Great Riftland, and when they went down the gentle slope, there were two forks leading to the depths of the Great Rift, these two roads seemed to be passable, and there were also signs set up on the side of the road, the handwriting on them had been rusted, and when you looked closer, you could vaguely identify from the signs on the left that this was the road to the Rift Bazaar, and the road on the right led to the town of Carthage, which was slightly recorded in ancient books, It was after the last eruption of the Abyssal Volcano that the lava consumed the dwellings of the inhabitants of the Great Rift, and the inhabitants were forced to relocate, and the new town was renamed Carthage, which is now the site of the old Carthage, where most of the town's buildings died out with the expansion of the lava, and now only the remains of the houses are left.

No one knew these two paths, and without knowing the specifics of these two roads, the Empress had no choice but to order her troops to divide into two routes, one from the Rift Bazaar and the other from the Carthaginian town, and the two pairs tried their best to capture the dance while crossing the Great Rift.

At the sound of the order, the two teams immediately separated, and the ugly servant atonemented for his sins, and temporarily led the second team through the town of Carthage, while the empress passed through the Rift Bazaar with another pair.

The two teams separated and walked into the valley separately, Youyoule didn't understand the empress's intentions, and asked, "Why do you want to separate the two teams?" Isn't that more dangerous? ”

The empress said: "What I need is more information, no matter which of these two roads, there should be one that can be walked through, as long as you pass through the Great Rift Land, you can reach the feet of the Giant Beast." ”

The Empress Youyoule has always been a thoughtful person, and asked, "Do you have any special intentions when we go this way?" ”

The empress said: "Half of the current Carthage town has disappeared with the expansion of lava, it has become a dead city, there is no value to go, and there has been a lava disaster not far from the Carthage town, compared to our side will be less likely to encounter lava." ”

The two chatted all the way, the expedition team had gone to the depths of the Great Rift Land, in the valley of the Great Rift Land, you could feel gusts of hot wind blowing from the depths of the valley, there was a dilapidated pass in front of it, and you would go to the Rift Valley Market when you entered the pass, although it was still called the Rift Valley Market, but there was indeed nothing in it.

Beneath the cliffs on either side of the rift valley are houses built into the mountains, some of which have been ruined or some have collapsed, and the streets are dusty, giving the impression of a country in the desert.

Everyone has already taken off their heavy clothes and threw them at the mouth of the valley, since entering the valley, Youyoule feels that it is very stuffy here, seeing the scene in front of him, Youyoule involuntarily said: "It's so desolate here." ”

Chu Jingxiang said: "This used to be a small bazaar under the Imperial City, but now it has become desolate with the fall of the Empire. ”

Youyou said: "There's nothing left here?" ”

At this time, the vanguard of the front team sent by Chu Jingxiang had already returned, and reported: "There is no danger in front for the time being, so you can continue to move forward." ”

The expedition continued to move forward, and about half of the way through the Great Rift, the vanguard of the front team suddenly came to report, "Oh no, the empress, the magma flow in front has broken the valley wall and poured into the valley!" ”

The empress hurriedly asked, "Is there a way ahead that can be bypassed?" ”

"There is a road that leads to the basin in the canyon, but you can't go out of the Great Rift. ”

The empress thought for a while and said, "The journey of the Great Split Land has already been more than half of the way, we can't give up halfway, go to the basin first!" ”

The pioneer stopped: "Your Excellency, although it is safe in the basin now, sooner or later the magma flow will flow into the valley, and going there is tantamount to killing yourself!" ”

The Empress asked again, "What about the flow of magma?" ”

Pioneer said: "It seems like a lot, but I don't know the specifics, because the flow of the lava tributaries is difficult to judge. ”

The empress said: "Now, let's take a gamble, if the amount of lava in the tributaries is not enough, it will solidify after flowing into the basin, and after the lava solidifies, we can continue to move forward." ”

The pioneer said: "Then please hurry up, I will show you the way in front." ”

Youyoule is very worried about Chu Jingxiang's approach, once she chooses the wrong one, the expedition team will die here, she must be confident, Youyoule looked back and found that those people with black secret boxes were still behind the team, the reason why Chu Jingxiang dared to do this must be because of those people!
